Serial Number 646000 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: 17 jewels, not marked Plymouth, sn 646000 perhaps
specially made. This appears to be the last one
produced. Only 2000 of this run were produced as
sn 646001 and higher are a 16s 7j movement as is
shown by user verification and how the company
records overlap from 646001 to 646600.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The estimated total production already takes the corrected run into account. There is another run of Model 1 Grade 162 with serial numbers 732,001-732,500, identified in a supplement issued by Rockford following the 1907 serial list.
